Scottsdale Counseling Services

Currently Accepting New Clients

Welcome to Bloom Psychotherapy, my name is Laura Bell. As a result of past traumas or painful relational experiences, people create coping mechanisms to protect themselves from further harm. While helpful at the time, these ways of coping have unintended consequences once they’re no longer needed. These unintended consequences often show up as anxiety, depression, loneliness, anger, rage, struggles with boundaries, people-pleasing, feeling disconnected, and a struggle to live and relate freely as one’s true self.

Counseling can provide a safe, non-judgmental space to express emotion, understand how various ways of coping are helping or hindering, replace self-judgment with self-understanding, modify coping mechanisms that are no longer helpful, and practice new ways of being in relationship. As a result, painful patterns no longer hold as much power and a different experience can be had.

It takes courage to reach out for and accept support, especially if you’re used to carrying it all alone. Together, at my North Scottsdale location or via Telehealth, we can understand what is going on, face what feels scary, and build awareness around outdated coping mechanisms that may be keeping you in a cycle of suffering. With increased awareness, other perspectives show up giving a person more choices in how to proceed so you can approach yourself, your life, and your relationships with confidence and clarity.

Contact me to schedule a free, 15-Minute consultation so we can discuss if working together is right for you:
